<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"How do you find God in the ordinary moments of life? After a random surgery gave Karen Wingate better vision than she ever had before, she saw parts of creation, faces of friends, and life moments in ways she had never seen before. In her book, With Fresh Eyes, sixty readings chronicle her discoveries and shed light on your ability to look for God, see the finer details of His handiwork, and discover how He moves and works within the lives of His children. Her insights will guide you toward the light of God's goodness and help you find a clarity of spiritual sight you've never experienced before"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>What miracles do we miss when we close our eyes to the wonder of everyday moments?</b> <p/>In this busy, jaded world of ours, we often take for granted what we see every day. We may set aside time to spend with God in a quiet room, but we struggle to see his hand in a traffic jam or while walking the dog. But for Karen Wingate, sight itself is something extraordinary, and what our eyes can reveal is even more astounding. <p/>Karen lived most of her life with severely limited sight due to a cluster of disorders stemming from a genetic defect. But through the chance outcome of a surgery, she regained sight in one eye that doubled her visual acuity--and allowed her to see things she had never seen before. And as she discovered a more detailed world for the first time, she also began to see God in every new discovery--from the prosaic numbers of a bathroom scale to the glory of sunsets. <p/><i>With Fresh Eyes</i> invites readers not only to celebrate the gift of their own sight but to reawaken to the wonder of what they observe in creation--great and small--and how God is working in everyday moments. In each of her sixty meditations, Karen's humor and whimsy draw a connection between physical sight and spiritual understanding that will leave readers with a renewed joy and delight in what is good and beautiful, and will reassure them that God still works in the lives of his people.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>With Fresh Eyes</i> is a true spiritual treasure.
